Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday, Baby! Oh, I love you so!

One Candle makes a lovely light!

  She helped me pick her gifts

Meet the Monkey

Love how this one looks like a selfie?

One of the very funnest things about this little monkey turning one is that her personality is just exploding out of her. She is rapidly blossoming into this tiny goofball and I find myself frequently laughing my guts out over her expressions or actions.

She thinks the phone is hers. 

She often lets me know when she wants it back.

 A few weeks ago,

As a baby grows...

I've been a little absent lately. 

(new calling helping the young women? Yeah, that can do that to ya! 

Also this danged running business: wherein my husband is preparing to run a crazy marathon and I decided I didn't want to be left out (?) so now I try to run a mile or two sometimes..... Bleh!)

Today is merely a brief attempt to document the sheer cuteness that is my littlest monkey.

She likes to get into trouble.
